Access and arrival
77 km (48 mi) to Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) is far enough to change the shape of the programme: a first morning session will lose the people who flew in that day.
The centre of Niagara Falls is 4.9 km (3 mi) away, which is a taxi rather than a walk and a reason to publish an arrival map.
Niagara Falls has 8 venues mapped in total and a population of 47,512. The Niagara Falls guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
The kind of event it takes
At 1,400 seats this takes a full conference in one room. Confirm what the space looks like with the seating cleared, because that is the version most conferences actually book.
- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
The app bill, at this size
A Dwyer Arena programme at 950 activated attendees — sized to the stated capacity of Dwyer Arena — prices like this. Nothing is charged for the first 50, and nothing at all is charged past 1,000.
